Voiced ゚ Hiragana ゙
皆さんこんにちは~ ( Hello Everyone)
Going back to the basics today, well kind of going back to the basics.
Remember these: か、さ、た、は? When you add either a 濁点 [だくてん] = ( ゙ )or a 半濁点 [はんだくてん] = ( ゚ ) the sound of those Hiragana characters change to a different voiced or muddied sound.
-This only pertains to the Hiragana listed on the above chart-
So let's say we add a 濁点 ( ゙ ) to those basic Hiragana consonants:
か - when added a ( ゙ ) changes into: が as in Gaga さ- when added a ( ゙ ) changes into: ざ as in Zah た - when added a ( ゙ ) changes into: だ as in Dah は - when added a ( ゙ ) changes into: ば as in Bah
半濁点 ( ゚ ) is only used on the「はひふへほ」Hiragana.
So let's say we add a 半濁点 ( ゚ ) to the「はひふへほ」Hiragana:
は | when added a ( ゚ ) changes into : ぱ as in Pah ひ | when added a ( ゚ ) changes into : ぴ as in Pee ふ | when added a ( ゚ ) changes into : ぷ as in Poo へ | when added a ( ゚ ) changes into : ぺ as in Penny ほ | when added a ( ゚ ) changes into : ぽ as in Poll
So if we follow the chart above it shows:
G| The か きくけ こ 's " K " at the beginning is replaced by a "G"
Z | The さしすせそ's "S" at the beginning is replaced by a "Z" except for し D | The たちつてと's "T" at the beginning is replaced by a " D" except for ち B | The はひふへほ with a 濁点 ( ゙ ) in the front is replaced by a "B" at the beginning. P | The はひふへほ with a 半濁点 ( ゚ ) in the front is replaced by a "P" at the beginning.
* Both し and ち are replaced by a "J"
し | when added a ( ゙ ) changes into じ as in G ち | when added a ( ゙ ) sounds exactly the same as じ
